Basic Principles

BASIC PRINCIPLES

3.2.1. Ramp Handling Basic Principles


There are 3 (three) point basic principles in ramp handling:
01. Safety & Security
02. Regularity
03. Efficiency
3.2.2. Basic Control Principles
Basic control principles shall everyone doing the job in the ramp side i.e.
01. Watch what is going on
02. If it goes wrong
03. Put it right
3.2.3. REMEMBER, DO OR DO NOT IN THE RAMP
REMEMBER
01. You are responsible for your vehicle, check condition of brakes, tires and where
applicable, protective padding or buffering before using the vehicle. Report any
defect to your supervisor immediately
02. Damage, however slight, could have fatal consequences to a pressurized
aircraft. Report any damage to an aircraft immediately to the Ground Engineer
or the Aircraft Captain.
03. Oily or wet surface increase the risk of accident. Oily or wet boots can slip off
pedals and thus causes accident. Keep them clean
04. Never Reverse onto or from an aircraft unless a competent person is available
to guide you (Always use the recognized hand signals)
05. When parking your vehicle, make sure that the wheels are straight, neutral/park
gear engaged, handbrake fully applied and the engine switched off. Only when
the engine power is required for other function, should your vehicle engine be
kept running
06. Vehicle and equipment must not be located where they could hinder access to
the aircraft and obstruct the evacuation of person from the aircraft in an
emergency
07. Never drive within the hazardous area around an aircraft, which has its anticollision beacons flashing. This indicates that its engines are running or about to
be started
08. Always lower high lift vehicles (High loader, Catering Uplift truck) immediately
when servicing has been completed, ensuring that a safety clearance exists
between the vehicle and aircraft before lowering

3.

RAMP HANDLING

3.2.

Basic Principles

09. Never drive a high lift vehicle with the body elevated
10. Sharp turns with towed equipment should never be made near the aircraft
11. Drive at all times with caution, relating your speed to the prevailing conditions.
Also consider the weather conditions such as rain, snow, ice, fog, frost etc. A
steady and not a hasty attitude is vital to safe vehicle operation on the ramp
12. Do not drive under aircraft wings unless specifically authorized to do so or
position your vehicle too close to the aircraft in case it settles
13. Do not leave your vehicle at the aircraft side in such a position that it impedes
other service, i.e. refueling, engineering, catering, loading/unloading etc
14. Never drive the mobile conveyer belt loaders by means of the hand throttle.
Always ensure that the hand throttle is fully closed before starting the vehicle
15. Stay alert expect the driver ahead of you to brake at any time without warning or
apparent reason
16. Start stopping sooner when you know youll have to stop, slow down gradually.
Dont wait until the last moment, delayed braking is dangerous
17. You have the right of way only when you can see that its safe. You cant count
on the other driver obeying the rules
18. Always check that lights and signals are working before driving
19. Always drive around aircraft in such a direction that the aircraft is always on the
drivers side of the vehicle
20. Aircraft always have the right of way
DO
01. Do obey safety rules
02. Do understand danger spots
03. Do know what causes accidents
04. Do know emergency procedures
05. Do wear personal protective equipment if the job calls for it
06. Do obey speed limit
07. Do give way to moving aircraft
08. Do wear hearing protection in noise hazard areas
09. Do wear personal Airport Pass issued by Airport authority
10. Do give way to passengers
11. Do approach aircraft from the side
12. Do keep a good look-out
13. Do keep clear of the leading and trailing edges of the wing (slats and flaps)
14. Do walk with care near propellers, landing gear doors and thrust reversers
15. Do pick-up litter
16. Do walk with care at aircraft engine intake and exhaust area

GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT (GSE)


Efficient utilization of aircraft is the prime objective of any airline operation today. A
major factor in optimizing the utilization of aircraft is the time required to service it on
the ground.
The ground support equipment manufacture in association with airlines has now
developed equipment to help keep the ground servicing time to a minimum. As a
result, the equipment has become complex in its design and more expensive to
purchase and maintain.
Therefore proper maintenance of ground support equipment has become more
important and must be a priority of any modern airlines in todays competitive world.
Good reliable Ground Support Equipment is essential in achieving efficient aircraft
turnarounds and on time departure. In addition equipment like cycles can be
extended, thereby deferring expensive replacements costs.
The ground support equipment divided into 2 (two) main group based on station
service and technical function.

Container / Pallet Dolly are a low cart for carrying container / pallets from their
loading bay to the aircraft side. Each dolly has a tow-bar and they can be joined
together to form a train which is towed by a tractor.
The center or total upper party of the container dolly is usually a turntable fitted
with rollers.
This can be turned and locked to suit end or side loading. Rollers in front of and
behind the turntable, or only where a turntable is fitted, assist in end loading and
in transferring a container to/from a dolly. Looks/stops must be set a variety of
positions for the different type of containers.

Sometimes at congested airports, space is insufficient to maneuver a train of
pallet or container dollies on to the high loader. The train is then parked at some
distance from the aircraft and a self-propelled transporter is used to bridge the
gap between the individual dollies and high loader. Where the pallet or container
terminal is in close proximity with the high loader the use of the dollies can be
avoided.
The platform is adjustable to allow it to match dolly height, rack height or loader
height. Powered rollers assist in loading and offloading from front and rear end.
There are 1-way, 2-way and 3-way transporter.

A loader is a mobile lifting device for transferring containers and/or pallets from
their dollies to the aircraft compartment and vice versa. These are various
loaders used which allow lower deck loading, main deck loading or both. Some
loaders allow pallets to be loaded lengthwise into the aircraft compartment.
The single platform loader consists of a lifting platform only. The two platform
loader has a lifting platform and a bridging platform. In its low position the height
of the lifting platform matches the height of the dolly. Powered rollers on the
loader assist in the transfer of the container or pallet from the dolly. The lifting
platform is then raised to line up with the bridging platform. From this position
powered rollers move the load into the aircraft. The bridging platform can be
attached to the aircraft with the use of special fittings. The bridge will then
automatically adjust to any aircraft movement during the loading or unloading
operation.
The two platform system also allows the staging of a container or pallet on the
bridging platform, so that in the meantime the lifting platform can be lowered to
pick up other load units, thereby substantially reducing cycle time.

surface. The forklift with the slave pallet attached is used in the normal way.
The rollers assist in the loading of the container or pallet on the slave pallet and
its transfer to the aircraft but are not powered. The locks must be engaged
during all fitting and maneuvering to ensure safety to equipment and personnel.

The sequence and interaction of ground handling activities need to be observed for
the completion of a smooth operation and on time departure of the aircraft.
In the ramp side all job activity shall be taken special measurement to achieve the
goal in ramp handling operational and aircraft will be departed on time.
Some ground handling activities are independent of each other. For example the
rear hold and front hold off loading with two lower deck loaders because these
activities may be started and stopped independently.
Other activities must take place in sequence, such as cabin cleaning and
disembarking of passengers. These activities are linked to each other and the delay
of activity will also delay the next, unless some available time exists between each
activity.
5.7.3. Time Margin on Various Activities
For each activity, there is a recommended earliest and latest start or finish time. The
available time or time margin is the difference between the earliest and latest

6.5.2. Numbering Holds, Compartment and Sections
The standard IATA practice is to number holds, compartments and sections from
Lower to Main Deck and from front to rear. In accordance with this the following
numbering scheme has been developed:
Compartment
Number
1
2
3
4

6
0

Position in Aircraft
: The forward part of the lower forward hold or the total
lower forward hold
: The aft part of the lower forward hold
: The forward part of the lower aft hold
: The aft part of the lower aft hold or the total lower aft hold
: The total main deck forward compartment or the bulk
compartment of large capacity aircraft.
: The total main deck aft compartment.
: The cabin compartment aft position

Examples:
Due to the large size of the compartments in large capacity aircraft some airlines
deviate slightly from the above principle.

6.6.2. Running (Linear) Load Limitation


Definition an aircraft is a flexible structure; In particular, the fuselage contorts during
flight according to the loads it contains. So that the fuselage contortion does not
exceed at any point the maximum allow limit, which would result in a risk of
permanent damage, the manufacturer defines a running (linear) limitation, i.e. a
maximum load acceptable on any given fuselage length. This limitation is expressed
in kg per m (lb per in) of fuselage length.
The linear limitation applies to the whole of the load located in a given part (on a
given length) of the hold.

each bulk hold section. It is provided by the manufacturer in the appropriate
chapter of the Weight and Balance Manual. Therefore, it is prohibited to exceed
this maximum load per section.
02. Heavy packages in the event of carriage of one or several heavy packages,
the running load limitation is complied with, and there is no need to check it, if
the following rules are applied:
Total load in the hold section (including the heavy package(s) is below the
allowed maximum load for the section; use a spreader if the area load
limitation is exceeded.
6.6.3. Area Load Limitation
01. The holds area load limitation, expressed in kg/m2- (lb/ft2), is to prevent the
weight of the load (expressed in kg or lb) resting upon a certain area of the
compartment floor (expressed in m2 or ft2) to exceed the capability of the aircraft
structure underneath the floor (beams, cross beams, attachments to the aircraft
body).
02. The hold area load limit is provided by the aircraft manufactures in the
appropriate chapter of the Weight and Balance Manual. It is, generally referred
to as Uniformity Distributed Floor Loading or Maximum Distributed Load.
03. If it is stated that the area load limit is 750 kg/m2, this means that on 1 m2 of the
floor, not more than a total amount of 750 kg may be loaded, one or several
pieces of cargo, and irrespective of the way the piece (or the pieces) of cargo is
(are) in contact with the floor within the square meter considered.
04. In practice, the area load limitation shall be checked dividing the weight of the
piece of cargo by the area defined by the external contour of its contact points
on the floor (see figure 1. Below).
EXAMPLE:
In the case the area to take into account is not the crate or the surface of its feet
but the area S = L X I defined by the external contour of its contact points:

If the resulting figure is higher than the limitation, the load cannot be accepted
as it is. It will be necessary to provide a spreader to be placed under the load.
The spreader shall meet two requirements;
a. It shall possess a sufficient degree of stiffness to effectively accomplish the
load transfer; this degree of stiffness will be dictated by the weight of the
load and the length of spreader projecting beyond or within each actual
contact point of the package with the spreader.
b. The resulting area, defined by the external contour of the contact points of
the spreader, shall distribute the load below or up to the maximum permitted
area load.
To determine the area required the following calculation is made divide the
weight of the piece of cargo by the hold area load limit. (See example).

The floor panel limitations divide into 2 parts
A. Contact Load Limitation
The Floor Contact Load Limitation (expressed in kg/m2 lb/ft2) is
purposed to prevent the weight of load imposed by those parts of the
load in direct contact with the floor from exceeding the capability of the
horizontal FLOOR PANELS (metal sheets, honeycomb sandwich
panels).
The floor contact limit is provided by some aircraft manufactures in the
corresponding chapter of the Weight and Balance Manual. It is generally
referred to as concentrated (foot print load. Or maximum local
load).
If it is stated that floor contact load limit equal with 2000 kg/m2 , this
limitation shall be checked by dividing weight load of piece of cargo by
its actual contact area with the floor ( see figure 3 below)

The calculation resulted that the limitation is exceeding.
a. If the resulting figure is higher than the limitation, the load can not be
accepted as it is. It is necessary to provide a spreader floor to be placed
under the load
b. The spreader floor/panel shall meet two requirements :
It shall posses a sufficient degree of stiffness to effectively
accomplish the load transfer; this degree of stiffness will be dictated
by the weight of the load and the length of spreader projecting
beyond or within each actual contact point of the package with the
spreader floor.
Its actual contact area with the aircraft floor will distribute the load
below or up to the maximum permitted contact load.
c. To determine the contact area required the following calculation is
made, divide the weight of the piece of cargo by the floor contact limit
(see example figure 4. Below)
Example:
Load = 480 kg
Floor contact load limit = 2000 kg/m2

d. If the package requires a spreaders floor, this means that even with this
floor the maximum contact load limitation is reached; therefore no other
cargo shall be loaded on the package itself or on the accessible parts of
the spreader floor.
e. Where no floor local load limits is provided by the manufacturer, it is
recommended to take following steps when loading heavy pieces of
cargo:
i. Determine area load limitation by checked with structure area load
limitations
ii. Even if the area load limitation is not exceeded, but if the actual
contact area of the piece of cargo with floor is small (e.g. narrow
battens, rims. etc) place spreader material between the piece of
cargo and the floor. The contact surface of the spreader should be at
least equivalent to one quarter of the external contour area used for
check calculation follow the stepping guidance)
iii. Action point (b) is not required if it has been found necessary to use
a spreader floor after checking step point (a).

B. Point Load Limitation
i. It defines the resistance to puncture (by a heavy load bearing onto a
very small surface) to the material used in a bulk hold floor. It is
equivalent to a pressure, and is expressed in kg/cm2 (lb/in2)
ii. In practice, the concentrated load limit of bulk floors is very high.
Normally handled packages do not reach the limit. This is why the point
load limitation is not mentioned in the manuals of the aircraft
manufacturers and carriers.
iii. In this condition so then it is recommended. However, to apply the
elementary package handling precautions indicated hereafter in order to
avoid a floor puncture by a point load during handling in a bulk hold.
iv. Packages Handling.
During handling, never lay a heavy (more than 50 kg) package on
one corner.
Never roll a drum shipment on it rim.
Never drop down a heavy (more than 50 kg) package on an edge or
a corner: the impact might result in floor puncture.
